Crosby Lodge near Carlisle

A last minute dash to Crosby Lodge, the childhood home of Georgiana, was made possible by the generous reception by the owner of this beautiful private hotel, Mrs Patricia Sedgewick.Mrs Sedgewick has a deep interest in the life of the original owners and particularly Georgiana. This house was built for her parents by Elizabeth Kennedy's father, whose estate mansion was adjacent. I think perhaps Crosby Lodge has a feminine aesthetic with delightful proportions. The Sedgewick have invested in and restored it in an admirable manner. Just imagine staying there and look out of the very windows and see the view that Georgiana experienced. Another dream of which I aspire!
